tea and mini cakes with grandma, flower shop display, image from last year, walnuts from the backyard

hello there this is me :) I needed a new head shot, fingerless gloves in the making, blanket finished

doily love pattern by Emma Lamb in this book, behind the scenes, first pumpkin soup of the season and dreamy rose

and last but not least: a super scary shot of my full and messy craft room/ studio/ work space. ahum. let's call this the 'before' picture. with the super high ceilings, original 1915 wooden floor, 2 large windows and lots of square meters it makes for one dreamy room. at the same time it is a puzzle to put the furniture pieces together in a way that makes it a cozy place too. while organizing I am fighting the battle whether I have too less storage space or too much stuff... I am leaning towards the latter and that might result in a give away soon.

this picture was taken on Friday. some organizing took place this weekend and furniture pieces were shuffled around a bit. to keep myself motivated, I will promise to post a progress picture every Monday in the coming weeks. because after all: it could only get better than this!

also, for the crocheters among my readers: look for a bit of gorgeous vintage inspiration here

and this little video put a smile on my face, I found it through Mollie's site
